What is internal linking?

An internal link is a type of hyperlink on a webpage to another page or resource, such as an image or document, on the same website or domain. Hyperlinks are considered either "external" or "internal" depending on their target or destination. Generally, a link to a page outside the same domain or website is considered external, whereas one that points at another section of the same webpage or to another page of the same website or domain is considered internal
 
An internal link connects a page of your site with another page on your site. If you write a material on a topic that has already been touched on in your other material, then you can make a reference to this material.
Internal links perform three main tasks:

1. help in navigation on the site;
2. definition of the architecture and hierarchy of the site;
3. page ranking on the site.
